Book excerpt: Modern medicine and many manual therapies effectively ignore the impact of posture on the health of the individual. This pioneering study by doctors back in the mid 1900s is a must read for bodyworkers everywhere. Informative and insightful, it gives credence to the importance of good body mechanics in the alleviation of many of the ailments that beset us today, including heart conditions, diabetes and arthritis. Joel E. Goldthwait was Chief of Orthopedic Surgery in Boston in the early 1900s. He developed a successful approach to the problems of chronic diseases founded on the concept that these conditions arose because of body misalignments which in turn led to compromised organ function. It was a revelation to many that standing or sitting badly could impact more than just the spine and joints

Download or read book Musculoskeletal Disorders and the Workplace written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2001-05-24 with total page 510 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every year workers' low-back, hand, and arm problems lead to time away from jobs and reduce the nation's economic productivity. The connection of these problems to workplace activities-from carrying boxes to lifting patients to pounding computer keyboards-is the subject of major disagreements among workers, employers, advocacy groups, and researchers. Musculoskeletal Disorders and the Workplace examines the scientific basis for connecting musculoskeletal disorders with the workplace, considering people, job tasks, and work environments. A multidisciplinary panel draws conclusions about the likelihood of causal links and the effectiveness of various intervention strategies. The panel also offers recommendations for what actions can be considered on the basis of current information and for closing information gaps. This book presents the latest information on the prevalence, incidence, and costs of musculoskeletal disorders and identifies factors that influence injury reporting. It reviews the broad scope of evidence: epidemiological studies of physical and psychosocial variables, basic biology, biomechanics, and physical and behavioral responses to stress. Given the magnitude of the problem-approximately 1 million people miss some work each year-and the current trends in workplace practices, this volume will be a must for advocates for workplace health, policy makers, employers, employees, medical professionals, engineers, lawyers, and labor officials.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author asks, "Can you answer these questions? If you cannot - you should read this book!" 1. Where do bacteria, fungi, and viruses come from? 2. Do they cause disease or are they the result of disease? 3. Where do "superbugs" come from and why? 4. What are the basic reasons for the increase of epidemics? 5. Can epidemics be prevented without vaccines? 6. How are vaccines made, and what do they actually do? 7. Are vaccinations based on science or on a false biology? 8. What is the "immune system" and how can it be enhanced? The field of Medicine is under attack here as it has not advanced in this new century with the promise of greater health, less sickness, lower healthcare costs, but is stuck in the past where searching for the etiology of disease was replaced with a treatment of symptoms. At a time in our nation's history when healthcare expenses are huge and are being passed on to present and future generations, the truth about infection and disease must be revealed! The medical profession's false image has been obvious: "DrugCare IS HealthCare!" An entire generation has been "kept in the dark" about sickness and disease and have been at the mercy of a medical profession that has forsaken science for a dream of huge salaries and unlimited patients seeking medical care. The medics have long-realized that drugs do not cure anything, but rather mask symptoms, alleviate pain and discomfort and are a lifetime addiction. This book will introduce you to a WHOLE NEW BIOLOGY that will show you how your mind and body respond to natural means of living for health, healing and an extended life, because it will be under your control, to a much larger extent. Is this your desire?
